TILLAMOOK COUNTY COMMUNITY HEALTH CENTERS: 56th COVID-19 Related Death Reported in Tillamook County

Posted on February 3, 2022February 3, 2022 by Editor

February 03, 2022 – TILLAMOOK, Ore. — Tillamook County Public Health Department was notified of new a COVID-19 related death that occurred this month, raising the Tillamook County COVID-19 pandemic death toll to 56.

Tillamook County’s 56th COVID-19 related death is a 63-year-old man from Tillamook County who died Feb. 01, 2022 at Adventist Health Portland Medical Center. He had underlying conditions.

“We grieve for all of the lives lost and wish to extend our sincerest condolences at this difficult time.” – Marlene Putman, Administrator, Tillamook County Health Department.

COVID-19 is a highly infectious illness. Local and state health officials continue to urge all Oregonians to take steps to protect those who are most vulnerable to complications from COVID-19. Those considered “high risk” include adults 60 and older, or anyone with a serious health condition, including lung or heart problems, kidney disease or diabetes, or anyone who has a suppressed immune system.

To help control the spread of the illness, those not yet vaccinated are urged to limit travel, avoid gatherings, and make a plan to get vaccinated against COVID-19 as soon as possible.

We ask all county residents to be extra mindful of choices in regard to gatherings and to follow current public health guidance to slow the spread of the COVID-19:

  • Follow guidance on face coverings.
  • Wash your hands often with soap and water for at least 20 seconds.
  • Avoid touching your eyes, nose or mouth with unwashed hands.
  • Keep 6 ft. of distance from those not in your immediate household.
  • Stay home if you feel ill.
  • Choose to get vaccinated against COVID-19 if you are eligible and not yet vaccinated and choose to receive a booster dose if you are fully vaccinated when eligible to.
